You can&#x27;t make this stuff up:<p><i>&quot;Taking a page out of the mobile-phone industry’s playbook, HP plans to offer both locked and unlocked printers. Buy the locked version, and you pay less upfront, but lock yourself into buying supplies from HP. Unlocked printers will cost more, but customers will be free to use supplies from any third-party vendor.&quot;</i>
